9/11 in NYC! Today is the 13th anniversary of the tragic terrorist attack to the twin towers in NYC. :( however we decided to visit the memorial tomorrow, given that it would most likely be packed with people today. We started the day early, went for breakfast at Clinton St Bakery as recommended by Luke. Absolutely incredible. We had an egg white omelette and pancakes with blueberries - awesome! Then we headed to Brooklin on the train, walked around the neighbo...

The concrete jungle! Our first day in NYC (also my first day ever in North America) was loads of fun and very tourist-productive! I woke up very dusty with the jet-lag, having spent the night feeling jealous at Paul and how he was fast asleep, while I stared at the ceiling.

We were so proud of ourselves for having been able to pack all our stuff in a single suitcase! We wanted to make it easier to carry the ...

First Wedding - check! Our first wedding (the Sydney one) finally came around and very quickly passed by... Like all great things we look forward to in life! We had a wonderful day, made extra-exciting by the drizzle, rain, wind, sun and rainbow that visited us at different times, making our pictures even more amazing! Special mention to my sweet little fiancé who was raining through his eyes (that was most definitely more than just crying, he was raining)! S...
